Journal Title：Veterinary Microbiology

Veterinary Microbiology is concerned with microbial (bacterial, fungal, viral) diseases of domesticated vertebrate animals (livestock, companion animals, fur-bearing animals, game, poultry, fish) that supply food, other useful products or companionship. In addition, Microbial diseases of wild animals living in captivity, or as members of the feral fauna will also be considered if the infections are of interest because of their interrelation with humans (zoonoses) and/or domestic animals. Studies of antimicrobial resistance are also included, provided that the results represent a substantial advance in knowledge. Authors are strongly encouraged to read - prior to submission - the Editorials ('Scope or cope' and 'Scope or cope II') published previously in the journal. The Editors reserve the right to suggest submission to another journal for those papers which they feel would be more appropriate for consideration by that journal.

Original research papers of high quality and novelty on aspects of control, host response, molecular biology, pathogenesis, prevention, and treatment of microbial diseases of animals are published. Papers dealing primarily with immunology, epidemiology, molecular biology and antiviral or microbial agents will only be considered if they demonstrate a clear impact on a disease. Papers focusing solely on diagnostic techniques (such as another PCR protocol or ELISA) will not be published - focus should be on a microorganism and not on a particular technique. Papers only reporting microbial sequences, transcriptomics data, or proteomics data will not be considered unless the results represent a substantial advance in knowledge.

Drug trial papers will be considered if they have general application or significance. Papers on the identification of microorganisms will also be considered, but detailed taxonomic studies do not fall within the scope of the journal. Case reports will not be published, unless they have general application or contain novel aspects. Papers of geographically limited interest, which repeat what had been established elsewhere will not be considered. The readership of the journal is global.

獸醫(yī)微生物學研究的是家養(yǎng)脊椎動物（家畜、伴侶動物、毛皮動物、野味、家禽、魚類）的微生物（細菌、真菌、病毒）疾病，這些動物提供食物、其他有用產品或陪伴。此外，如果感染與人類（人畜共患病）和/或家畜有相互關系，則圈養(yǎng)野生動物或野生動物群成員的微生物疾病也會被考慮。抗生素耐藥性研究也包括在內，前提是研究結果代表了知識的重大進步。強烈建議作者在提交之前閱讀該期刊上先前發(fā)表的社論（“范圍或應對”和“范圍或應對 II”）。編輯保留建議將他們認為更適合該期刊審議的論文提交給其他期刊的權利。

發(fā)表關于動物微生物疾病的控制、宿主反應、分子生物學、發(fā)病機制、預防和治療方面的高質量和新穎的原創(chuàng)研究論文。主要涉及免疫學、流行病學、分子生物學和抗病毒或微生物劑的論文只有在證明對疾病有明顯影響時才會被考慮。僅關注診斷技術（例如另一種 PCR 方案或 ELISA）的論文將不予發(fā)表 - 重點應放在微生物上，而不是特定技術上。僅報告微生物序列、轉錄組學數據或蛋白質組學數據的論文將不予考慮，除非結果代表知識的重大進步。

如果藥物試驗論文具有普遍應用或意義，則會考慮它們。關于微生物鑒定的論文也會被考慮，但詳細的分類學研究不屬于該期刊的范圍。病例報告將不予發(fā)表，除非它們具有普遍應用或包含新穎的方面。地理范圍有限的論文，重復其他地方已確定的內容將不予考慮。該期刊的讀者遍布全球。

Veterinary Microbiology創(chuàng)刊于1976年，由Elsevier出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋農林科學 - 獸醫(yī)學全領域，此刊是該細分領域中屬于非常不錯的SCI期刊，在行業(yè)細分領域中學術影響力較大，專業(yè)度認可很高，所以對原創(chuàng)文章要求創(chuàng)新性較高，如果您的文章質量很高，可以嘗試。平均審稿速度 約3月 約8.1周，影響因子指數2.4，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預警名單，廣大學者值得一試。
